Shifts in the Banking System
• The First Bank of the United States
– The first Bank of the United States was created in 1791.

1811. Different, state-chartered banks began issuing
different currencies.
• The Second Bank of the United States
– The Second Bank was created in 1816.

Banking Stabilization in the Late 1800s
The National Banking Acts of 1863 and 1864 gave the federal
government the power to:
1. Charter banks
2. Require banks to hold adequate reserves of silver and
gold
3. Issue a single national currency
In 1900, the nation shifted to the gold standard, a monetary
system in which paper money and coins are equal to the value
of a certain amount of gold. The gold standard had two
advantages:
1. It set a definite value on the dollar.
2. The government could only issue currency if it had gold
in its treasury to back its notes.
